Quote: Normally a person with or with or IBS can handle more than 25 grams of excess fructose. Usually a 25 gram load of fructose is used to diagnose IBS which is about the amount of excess fructose found in a soft drink sweetened with HFCS. At 50 grams almost everyone exhibits fructose malabsorption. As pointed out previously up to 50% of IBS-C and IBS-D can exhibit fructose malabsorption.
I would like to see simple references for this. It seems like things that cannot be so certain. I have never heard of IBS being diagnosed in this way. Perhaps you meant something else.
-------------------- IBS-A for 20 years with terrible bloating and gas. On the diet since April 2004. Remember this from Heather's information pages:
"You absolutely must eat insoluble fiber foods, and as much as safely possible, but within the IBS dietary guidelines. Treat insoluble fiber foods with suitable caution, and you'll be able to enjoy a wide variety of them, in very healthy quantities, without problem." Please eat IF foods!
